Default Hello from the UK!

Hi all,

I have just registered on here as the UK is pretty poor for info and chat on the Ram!

My truck is a 2001 Dodge Ram single cab 24v Cummins 2WD 5spd. I have had the truck a little over a year and have done a few mods, the truck was completely stock when i bought it. The truck has 260565 miles.

Mods so far -
Baldwin BHAF
Pensecola 50hp injectors
Smarty
Raptor 150 fuel pump
Glacier Diesel Power big line kit
Banks Monster Ram intake and boost tube
Banks Heater delete
BD low fuel pressure warning light

Got a few questions !

I bought a boost elbow for the turbo and I was going to fit it but i test drove the truck first after the raptor and smarty and was a bit confused about my boost. With the Smarty on #4 (mild Catcher - no timing) and a heavy right foot im getting 28PSI of boost???

Is this right, if so is there any point in me fitting the boost elbow???

Also I have to be careful over here with smoke as the law dont like the smoke :/ ! With the smarty will the Catcher(s) with Timing result in more or less smoke? Its not too bad at the moment but I make sure not many people are about when I have a play as it does send a light cloud .

Thanks in advance!
